Automatically assign an object declared in the class template XML to be set to a location on a freshly built instance’s private data, or alternatively accessible via [method@Gtk.
Widget.get_template_child].
The struct can point either into the public instance, then you should use `G_STRUCT_OFFSET(WidgetType, member)` for struct_offset
, or in the private struct, then you should use `G_PRIVATE_OFFSET(WidgetType, member)`.
An explicit strong reference will be held automatically for the duration of your instance’s life cycle, it will be released
automatically when `GObjectClass.dispose()` runs on your instance and if a struct_offset
that is `!= 0` is specified, then
the automatic location in your instance public or private data will be set to null. You can however
access an automated child pointer the first time your classes `GObjectClass.dispose()` runs, or alternatively in [[email protected]:
GtkWidget:destroy
].
If internal_child
is specified, [[email protected]_internal_child] will be automatically implemented by the
`GtkWidget` class so there is no need to implement it manually.
The wrapper macros [[email protected]_class_bind_template_child], [[email protected]_class_bind_template_child_internal], [ [email protected]_class_bind_template_child_private] and [[email protected]_class_bind_template_child_internal_private] might be more convenient to use.
Note that this must be called from a composite widget classes class initializer after calling [[email protected]_template].
